Belgrade, Jan. 19, 2010, (Serbia Today) - The Subotica Dairy may soon get the export number for the countries of European Union and, in that case, it will be the only in the country that, by introducing all required standards, meets the new conditions for export to that market.
As people from the Dairy told newspaper Dnevnik, the representatives of the EU Veterinary Commission are coming on February 15th to check the capacities and standards.
“We have obtained the export permit from our authorized ministry, and European Commission will evaluate the competency of our inspection and services. Its representatives will stay for three days to check our facilities and then give an estimate on whether we can export our products or not”- says Dragan Šašić, the Subotica Dairy's Technical Director.
This year Dairy plans to purchase 59m liters of milk, 1m more than in 2009. That additional million will be collected through formation of between 25 and 30 small family farms, which produce top-quality milk, so that the quality of milk as a raw material will be improved. That is of special significance to the Dairy because of its plan to get the export number for the EU countries on the basis of current quality and the standards it meets.
Subotica Dairy exported feta cheese to the US market on two occasions last year, and that it intends to resume that export in 2010
